**Special A**
*with `Dual Audio (Jpn/Eng)` and `Eng Subs` in `DVD 480p HEVC`*
Reencode of [Exiled-Destiny] (x264 AVC AC3) to (x265 HEVC AC3).
*Side Note: The name of this show is horrible to search for. Trying to find anything by typing 'special a' will bring up so many different things. I only found this by going through pages and pages of search results. That's how I found the unofficial [Exiled_Destiny] release on Nyaa which is [Single Audio] only. Somebody mentioned they have [Dual Audio] available on their IRC. I went and fetched it and made this out of it. If anybody is interested in the [Single Audio AVC] [Exiled-Destiny] release and doesn't want to search page by page, it can be found here:*

**Patch for Default Language / Subtitles Track**
This comes with [English audio] and [Signs/Songs subtitles] as default tracks.
I included an xDelta Patch for those who rather like [Japanese audio] with [Dialog subtitles] as default.
> Simply put all the video files into the Patch folder and run the patch file depending on your OS (for Windows: run '*3.Apply Patch-Windows.bat*').
> Consult '*readme.txt*' if you need help.

**Synopsis**
Hikari Hanazono has always been able to do things that normal people cannot. As a child, she assumed no one could beat her—until she met Kei Takishima. Thinking she would win, Hikari challenged him to a match. But things didn’t go as planned; she lost not once but each time she rechallenged him. From that point on, she has sworn to best Kei at everything, ranging from academics to athletics.
To achieve her goal, Hikari enrolls in the same school as Kei—Hakusenkan, a prestigious institute for the wealthy. As a pair, they hold the top two rankings in school and are among seven of the academy's best students in a class known as Special A.
While Hikari treats Kei as a rival, she is completely oblivious that he harbors hidden feelings for her. Together, the members of Special A deal with competition, friendship, and just a bit of love.
